Digitising Custom Build Expo

• A day of debates and drop in technology demonstrations for professionals interested in the future of custom build housing in the UK

• Free entry

New technology and digital innovation can help everyone involved in custom build housing – from planners and architects, to home builders, housing manufacturers, sales teams and, ultimately, the custom build customer themselves.

At every stage in the process, digital innovation can do things better - secure planning, visualise design choices, aid conversation, convert sales, build quicker and cheaper, and create higher quality, longer lasting homes.

There will be two debates running at the Digitising Custom Build Expo:

The morning session will be discussing planning, design and sales.

The afternoon session will be looking at manufacturing, build, and aftercare.

Please note: you do not need to book to test the technology, but please book your place in either one or both of the debates. Places are limited.
